A Life Prisoner Pardoned:

COLUMBIA, S. G., September 15.
Erwin, alias Paul Freeman, a white con-S
vict who was sentenced to life imprison.s
ment about 1877 for arson, being one sofl
agang of alleged incendiaries which at
the time troubled Chesterfield and Oar.
lington Counties, was set at liberty to-day
by Executive clemency and returns to-;
night to his family in Chesterfield. The
crime for which he was sentenced was;
burning Col. Witherspoon's house, but
he always claimed and still claims not: to-
have been concerned in it. Freeman had,
the reputation of being a desperate
character. He escaped twice from tbs
penitentiary, the first time while Col.
Parmelee was superintendent, and WIS
not recaptured until more than two years;
after, when he was found in HopkinsYills,5
KY, having got his family on and was
doing we'll, keeping a railroad boarding
house. His second escape was on june
I'd, 1880, and he was at the time in q cell.
under double locks and shackled, and;
was recaptured q month later in q swamp:
in Darlington County, and was shot fiye,
times before being taken, one shot shat.'
tering his left arm and afterwards had TO-
be amputated. The reasons for thecom-
mutation of Freeman's sentence cannot
be obtained in the absence of the Cover.
nor, but, no doubt, are good and sufi:'
cient.-Special to Charleston San.

Key West Excited.

KEY WEST, FLA, Sept. 49, This city
IS all agog. A Spanish ram is anchored in
the harbor, and another is cruising up
and down the keys outside. There is a
rumor, which has gained considerable
credence throughout the city, that they
are here to be used in kidnapping two
Cuban American citizeus supposed to be
implicated in the latest flibustering
movement. The Spanish government
always has few well-paid spies here
and a successful Kidnapping expedition,
would not be at all difficult. So far as
defense is concerned, the town has none.
There is not even militia company on
the island. The Importance attached to
the recent flibustering expedition is
shown by the activity Of the Spanish
government. The latest news from Cuba
has it that the force of filibusters landed
near Matanzas, numbering fifty. seven
men, was led by Manuel Garcia, and that
he was killed in the skirmish with the
troops and civil guards. This informa.
ton is discredited in some quarters and
nothing official can be learned. Gun
boats have been stationed along the coast.
Seventeen men supposed to belong to the
flibustering force have been captured in
the jurisdiction of Matanzas, and will be
tried by courtmartial in the city of Ma
tanZas.

The Cotton Fax.

Soon after the war the Southern plan.
ters were robbed by the government, by
the imposition of an illegal tax on cot
ton, of s15,O000OO. This tax was de.
clared to be unconstitutional, and the
amount appropriated by the government
still remains in the treasury of the Uni.
ted States.
Whay has not this money been refund
ed to the planters of the South? There
is not even decent pretext that can be
urged against the return of the money to
the people or the States.
There never was more outrageous act
of public plunder committed by the gov
ernment than in the imposition and col
lection of this cotton tax from the South
ern farmer.
Why do not the Democratic congress.
men unite in securing an appropriation
to refund the amount of s15,OOO,0OO
illegally collected from the South at a
time when the planters were impover-
ished? Even the Republicans would
not oppose a Bin making restitution in a
case like this. They could not afford to
place themselves upon record against re.
funding tax which has been declared
unconstitutional.
The Chronicle agrees with the Birnling.
ham Age that Southern Congressman
should no longer delay in securing legis-
lation by Congress refunding the cotton
tax to the farmers of the South or to the
States in proportion to the amount col
lected.-Aay,sta Chronicle.

ALL Abont a Jug.

GALLAr1N, Tenn, September 49,
Yesterday morning terrible and san
culinary fight took place at saundersville
over a jug of whisky. One Davis,
blacksmith, had jug Of whisky locked
up in his shop, and Clay Lyles broke the
lock to GET a drink. Davis reprimanded
Lyle, for his conduct, and hot words
eusued followed by a blow from Davis,
knocking him senseless with hammer.
Davis went to work shoeing horse,
when Lyles came up behind him and cut
Davis across the cheek, laying it wide
open. Lyles cut Davis across the shoul-
der, making dangerous wound. Davis
turned and struck Lyles over the head
with heavy pair of pinchers, laying
him out, Both are dangerously hurt.

Causes Of Sudden Death.

The number Of sudden deaths is large,
perhaps increasingly 80, although the
popular impression may be false, since
the daily press and the telegraph have
made neighborhood of the whole land.
One source of sudden deaths is acci-
dents, but many events pass under the
head of accidents which might have
been foreseen and guarded against.
Americans particularly are apt to take
great risks; for example, in their eating,
their clothing, in crossing railway tracks,
and in many other ways.
How careless we are! No staging
need ever fall, and it would not if proper
care were taken in choice of material
and construction. Think of the frightful
list of deaths resulting from the use Of
oil poured upon lighted fire to cause it
to kindle more quickly!
With many other causes of sudden
death, our own personal ills seem at first
to have almost nothing to do. There
may be q fatal break in the physical
machinery at point where weakness has
not been suspected. The heart, perhaps,
becomes unnaturally enlarged, or its
tough, muscular fibre turns to fat, and
suddenly there is mortal rupture.
Or the enfeebled heart fails to send
blood to the brain, and the man drops
dead in the street. or at his business, OF
more fortunately, perhaps, in the midst
of his family.
In other cases there may be degen'
GRAFTON of the cerebral artery, and high
living, or glass of wine, or an excite
ment of passion, may arouse the heart te

from Mackensie's History Of the Nsne-

accomplished the journey from Edin-

him OF the dangers Of this enterprise,

rate of one mile in a minute. Every
step forward in any department of life
must be made in the face of strong op.

ruined many man in this life and sent
his soul to hell at last. Within proper
restrictions, the maxim is good one.

Preparing to Hang the Anarchists.

a Chicago letter says: Preparations
were begun yesterday for the execution
of the seven anarchists in the county Jail
on Friday, November11. Sheriff Matson
will receive $500 for that days work, as
the county allows him s10O for every
man hanged. Just how the big job will
be accomplished has not been decided.
The three Italian murderers we're hanged
together on the same scafold, and that
bit of enterprise taxed to the utmost
limit the existing hanging capacity Of
the Jail. One scheme is to hang the men
in pairs. leaving Albert r. Parsons to
the last as the seventh or odd man. The
Law says the men must be executed
between the hours of ten in the morning
and four in the afternoon, and it is
thought that the intervening time will
suffice for the work on this plan. Ifthis
mode is adopted, the modern weights will
be used. Sheriff Matson is opposed to
the long-drawn-out agony Of a days work
at hanging, and favors the old-fashioned
platform, trap and ball.
There is just enough room in the Jail
corridor to erect an extension gibbet
twenty.eight feet long, giving four feet
space for the drop of each body. Seven
ropes will hang from the Cross beam,
which in turn, will be supported by FIVE
iron arms. The traps will be arranged
to drop from long bar extending the
length of the platform, by which the
seven traps can be released simultan.
eously and the Anarchists be all launched
into eternity together. The extension
gibbet will be erected privately in some
secret place during the next fortnight,
and experiments will be made until it
works in satisfactory manner. If the
condemned Anarchists really hope for
success in appealing to the federal Su.
2reme Court or to Governor Oglesby,
their hope is not shared by Sheriff Mat
SOD, Jailer Folz or States Attorney
Grinnell, and all necessary preparations
for the execution of the sentence will
proceed rapidly.

Tho Way 1t Works In Ohio.

a Cleveland, Ohio dispatch says:
The operation of the laws of last winter,
which repealed the statute authorizing
the establishment of separate schools for
colored pupils, is producing friction in
man = places. At Oxford, O., the colored
pupils nearly all deserted their own
schools and applied for admission to
white schools. A public meeting was
held and the school board was asked to
order the colored pupils to their own
school. The school board complied
with the request, and the colored people
propose to apply for mandamus. At
Yellow Springs the school board has
ordered the school closed Indefinitely or
until the Legislature can meet and take
some action. At Ripley, o., suit in
mandamus has been entered to compel
the school board to admit colored pupils.

The Child In the House.

There was something pathetic in the
appeal which little boy made to his
father when he cried: 81 often do wrong
l know, and then you scold me and 1
deserve it; but father, sometimes I do
my best to do rightl Won't you let me
know when<I do please you?" .@s-
In many families there are sensitive
children, dif6dent and easily intimidated,
who need, above everything else, encour-
agement; while there are others pert,
forward, and offensive, that need repres-
sion. Even in the same family, children
are so unlike in temperament and dis.
position as to require very different train
ing. Solomon's family regulator is out
of fashion now, but it had its use inits
day, and can find occasions for practical
application in ours. When discipline
was stricter than it is now parents receiv.
ed more honor. 1t was so in the days of
the apostle, for he said, "Our fathers cor
rected us, and we gave them reverence" !"
There are roundabout ways of reaching
the heart of child, and the rod of cor.
rection may be one of the indirect meth
DDS of stimulating the better nature.
But quite different is the case with chill.
dren of a highly nervous organization,
often with that pensive, plaintive air
about them that touches our pity. Even
their own parents do not know how such
natures are injured by the stern, we'll
intended, but mistaken discipline to
which they are often subjected. They
little know how such spirits are blighted
by harshness, and how traits Of character
which, under the influence Of tender, fos-
tering care, would have developed into
grace and beauty, never unfold at all for
the want of it. Such discipline to the
